AL councils at union, ward levels this month

The Awami League will start holding its union and ward level councils within this month.

The decision was taken when the prime minister, Sheikh Hasina, held a meeting with the party's working committee members at her Dhanmondi office Saturday afternoon.

"Our party president prime minister Sheikh Hasina will soon sit with the organising secretaries to fix the dates of the councils of union and ward levels,' a working committee member told the news agency.

He said the prime minister had directed them to work more seriously for further expediting the organisational activities in the wake of the opposition party's threat to topple the government through movement.

'She (Sheikh Hasina) has directed us to inform the people about success stories of the government,' he said.

Hasina also held a separate meeting with Nilphamari district Awami League leaders ahead of her visit to the district on October 12.

On the day, Hasina would present national flag to Bangladesh Army-run Electrical Mechanical School and inspect a parade of the army members.

Before returning to the capital, the prime minister is also expected to address a public rally in Nilphamari town.

Hasina on Saturday went to her Dhanmondi office to hold informal meeting with leaders of her party and its associate organisations.
